Title
Taken from a set of illustrations from the designs of Leon Bakst for The Sleeping Princess which were originally published by Ben Brothers in 1923, this illustration is labelled 'Planche XXIII: 'La Reine et ses Pages'. It shows the Queen in an elaborate gown with a blue over skirt and long train, trimmed with ermine which is being carried by two pages dressed in short blue breeches, white and gold jackets. They are also wearing white and gold pointed slippers and their white turbans are embroidered in gold and decorated with a single gold feather. The Queen's dress has a white underskirt embroidered at the hem, and with large green and gold motifs at the centre front. She wears a fitted bodice with an upstanding collar white and gold collar, the sleeves of which are very elaborate, and gathered into to 'puffs'. She is also wearing a high gold crown decorated with three sprays of huge white feathers which extend down below her shoulders. Harry Beard Collection.1921
